Hydrated Deep Eutectic Solvents for the Sustainable Valorization of Textile Waste

open access: yesChemSusChem, Volume 19, Issue 17, 14 September 2026.
Hydrated metal‐based deep eutectic solvents (DESs) composed of zinc or calcium chlorides, organic acids, and water were developed as low‐viscosity, room‐temperature‐stable media for the sustainable valorization of cotton waste. These formulations effectively disrupted the cellulose fiber structure and processed microcrystalline cellulose, medical‐grade

Closed‐Loop Radiative Cooling Mulch Upcycled From Agricultural Residues for Efficient Soil Heat–Water Stress Mitigation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 49, 3 September 2026.
Conventional passive radiative cooling films rely on costly feedstocks and energy‐intensive fabrication, with poor end‐of‐life compatibility in agriculture. To address this challenge, a sustainable radiative cooling mulch (SRCM) is developed from waste maize leaves via spontaneous hydrogen‐bond self‐assembly.
